Daily Update, April 10, 2023

    Today, I did a bunch of work that had piled up. First, I called my credit union, Hawai'i Federal and State Federal Credit Union, and juggled money in my accounts. Then I paid a bill. I called the vet about Val not eating well while taking a new medication but didn't get instructions about what to do. Then i called my dentist when it looked like I'd just missed an appointment, but apparently, I hadn't gotten down a change in time. I took down the time they had me down for later this month instead. {Smile}

   I ate dinner with Mom and read to her before dinner. I read scripture and thoughts about it, and then some of her niece's long family Christmas letter from 2022. Next, I read the card I gave her yesterday for Easter. After that, I read the next few pages of _1950's Fashion in Pictures_. I finished up by reading the April 10th story from 366 Stories for Bedtime: A Tale for Every Day of the Year. Mom said she liked it and seemed particularly interested in the picture book. {Smile}

   I read comics and articles around the phone calls and other chores in the morning and hopped into City of Heroes: Homecoming around three in the afternoon. There, I found Kitten and my RWBY friend, and the three of us teamed up. We did a series of missions until it was time to read to Mom. {Smile}

   I didn't get around to writing up yesterday's daily update until around dinnertime. I tried writing up some in the late afternoon and before I read to Mom, but the computer lost most of that. So, I rewrote the part I lost, finished the rest, and shared it around after dinner. {Smile}

   I didn't go into city of Heroes: Homecoming after dinner until yesterday's daily update was done and shared. There, I started a giant monster team when I found a giant monster. I continued with three more giant monsters, two of which can be summoned, and the third is easy to find. Phonso joined us for the last two. He meant to join for only the last one, but he came to help with the second to the last when I found we had a bit too few, and advertised for more. I advertised for more with the last, too, and Kitten joined us for the last one. Then Phonso wanted to do a task force. Most left, but Phonso, Kitten, and I stayed, as did a player named ThornRune. I also chatted with Nox while running the task force. Thankfully, the chat server lets us chat slowly while doing other things. After the task force, Kitten, Thorn rune, and I stayed. ThornRune and I established contact so we may keep in touch. Also, the three of use worked on some badges. We got a few, then tried a story arc to get some more, but it didn't get as many as we hoped. When it got too close to bedtime, we agreed to try again. {Smile}
